Nannites is a genus in the ammonoid cephalopods in the order Ceratitida from the middle and upper Triassic of the Alps, named by Mojsisovics (1897). Nannites is the type genus of the Nannitidae which has been placed in the Danubitaceae. Previously the Nannitidae was included in the Ptychitaceae along with the Ptychitidae and, Isculitidae.
Xiphogymnites is an extinct ammonoid cephalopod genus from the Triassic included in the family Gymnitidae. It is known from the Balkans in eastern Europe.
Bacchites is a genus of extinct ammonoid cephalopods belonging to the ceratitid family Juvavitidae.
Frechites is an early Triassic ammonite, a kind of cephalopod with an external shell, included in the ceratitid family Beyrichitidae.
Glyphidites is a genus of Late Triassic ceratitids included in the family Thisbitidae, characterized by an essentially involute shell with a compressed whorl section, nearly straight sides and arched venter, bearing a serrated keel and granular sinuous ribs.
Ceratitida is an order that contains almost all ammonoid cephalopod genera from the Triassic as well as ancestral forms from the Upper Permian, the exception being the phylloceratids which gave rise to the great diversity of post Triassic ammonites.
'Xenodiscoidea, formerly Xenodiscaceae, is a superfamily within the ammonoid order Ceratitida. The superfamily was named by Frech in 1902, presently contains ten families, only one of which was included in the original Otocerataceae of Hyatt, 1900, the remaining having been added.
Medlicottiidae is a family of ammonoid cephalopods belonging to the Prolecanitida, known from the Upper Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian) to the Early Triassic.
The Ophiceratidae is a family in the ammonoid order Ceratitida from the Lower Triassic, previously included in the Otocerataceae but now placed in the Noritiaceae as revised.
Clydonitoidea, formerly Clydonitaceae, is a superfamily in the ammonoid cephalopod order Ceratitida characterized by generally costate and turberculate shells with smooth, grooved, or keeled venters and sutures that are commonly ceratitic or ammonitic but goniatic in a few offshoots.
Ceratitoidea, formerly Ceratitaceae, is an ammonite superfamily in order Ceratitida characterized in general by highly ornamented or tuberculate shells with ceratitic sutures that may become goniatitic or ammonitic in some offshoots.
Longobarditidae is a family of ceratitd ammonoids known from the early Triassic, included in the Danubitaceae. Longobarditidae includes genera formerly placed in Hungaritidae by the American Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, Part L, 1957 as well as genera that have been described since.
Ptychitoidea, formerly Ptychitacheae, is a superfamily of typically involute, subglobular to discoidal Ceratitida in which the shell is smooth with lateral folds or striations, inner whorls are globose, and the suture is commonly ammonitic. Their range is Middle_ and Upper Triassic.
Paratirolites is a genus of Early Triassic ceratites from Armenia and Iran with distinct ribs, prominent ventro-lateral tubercles, and a broadly arched venter. The suture is ceratitic with a large ventral saddle. Ceratites are ammonoid cephalopods that lived during the Late Permian and Triassic.
Gymnites is a genus of ammonoid cephalopod from the Middle Triassic belonging to the ceratitid family Gymnitidae. These nektonic carnivores lived during the Triassic period, Anisian age.
Gymnitidae is a family of Lower to Middle Triassic ammonite cephalopods with evolute, discoidal shells.
Aplococeratidae is a family of ceratitids from the Middle Triassic with very simplified sutures and a tendency to lose their ornamentation. Shells are generally evolute, more or less compressed, with rounded venters. Ornamentation if present consists of umbilical ribs that disappear outwardly, toward the venter. The suture is ceratitic or goniatitic.
The Hungaritidae comprises a family of ceratitid ammonites described in the Treatise,(Arkell et al. 1957), as involute compressed, discoidal, with keeled or sharpened venter, smooth to weakly costate. Sutures ceratitid, usually with numerous elements.
Ophiceras is a genus of smooth, evolute ceratitid ammonites from the Early Triassic, with a rounded venter. Fossils of the genus have been found in Armenia, Azerbaijan, China, Greenland, and India.
Sturia is a genus of ceratitid ammonoids from the Lower Triassic with an ammonitic suture.
